Huge screenshots and lack of disk space
Hi, could you please stop uploading huge screenshots? The server is running out of disk space. While I don't expect you to be aware of that, it is important to the wiki community that space is conserved, and your article already had more than enough images for illustration without that latest batch. Once space runs out entirely, all uploads will need to be blocked, and we need to postpone that as long as feasible. In fact, if you could select just the perhaps 3-4 images essential for illustration (by unlinking the others) then the rest can be deleted, regaining some precious space. Many are too dark to meet our image guidelines anyway. Thanks for understanding and your cooperation. --Xymph (talk) 09:47, 13 June 2023 (CDT)


 * Sorry about that. Ive removed the links so those pictures can be deleted. I couldnt work out how to do it myself. Ive also reduced the size of the remaining picture.


 * By a strange coincidence, the server owner finally made some progress towards addressing the disk space problem, so we will be able to wing it until that has been installed, and the images archive reorganized. I have deleted a few images that you superseded or that were too dark, but the others can remain. The in-game shots should not be on the right throughout the entire article, I moved them into a gallery. Please go back to your images and add headers/summary/license like this, if not yet present. --Xymph (talk) 03:08, 14 June 2023 (CDT)

Does this edit imply the screenshots are not needed after all, and can be deleted? That's odd, then why did you upload them in the first place? --Xymph (talk) 03:05, 19 June 2023 (CDT)

I have removed the images as they were too large. Also they were too dark. I felt the images were needed but as they do not conform to the rules the article can do without them. As for your question... 'Then why add them?' I don't really understand the point of the question. Seems to carry some unnecessary attitude to it. So please feel free just to delete the article in it's entirety. I made a mistake. I didn't read all the doos and donts. I am extremely sorry. I have tried my best to correct that mistake. Please just remove the article and lets pretend it never happened.


 * There's no need for that, as said "the others can remain" but in a gallery. I added licenses now. There's no mistake in creating the article either -- it just needs more work to meet wiki standards. --Xymph (talk) 04:15, 22 June 2023 (CDT)


 * The screenshots were a huge problem due to the previous issue of the wiki running out of space, but, that has finally been fixed as of this week, and as a result, they are fine now, requiring a renaming at best since they are not correctly tagged as being part of a mod. They don't look to be too dark to me either. The article itself is fine too, just needs a bit of re-formatting, I'll see if I can get around to it this weekend. --Dynamo128 (talk) 04:53, 22 June 2023 (CDT)


 * If I could work out what exactly is wrong with the article as it is. I would edit myself to conform to a higher standard. And yes the pictures are far to big. That was a my mistake. Far to used to uploading picture of that size to Discord and forums. So those I have removed from the article can simply be deleted. They were basically just eye candy so it really does not matter. If I was able to delete them myself I would have. Maybe that could be a feature? An uploader can delete their own uploads? Maybe they can? I dunno. I couldn't work out how.


 * Unfortunately deleting one's own uploaded images isn't possible due to the technical way in which the wiki is built (I've tried to do it myself in the past too, and found out I couldn't), but it's ok, the screenshots you uploaded are in my opinion of good quality even if they are a tad too big - which, as said, was a critical issue until last week word of the wiki filesize upgrade finally reached us. As for the article itself, I got back home earlier today so I was able to do some cleanup: the main thing I did here was allocating most of the information to the opening paragraphs, as that is how most other mod pages are built too, it is a matter of standardization - as an example, have a look at Demon Eclipse or Simplicity pages as examples of how articles are generally laid out. Now even after the cleanup, it still needs to have the pages linked so that articles can be created later (this might require some time, as it is a manual process that takes a bit to do), the soundtrack for each map should also be listed (since it has new music), and finally, clarification of what maps the gallery screenshots correspond to. But I hope you are happy with this rework, and feel free to edit it to add any more information that you want to add, or if you have any more questions, we'd be happy to help. --Dynamo128 (talk) 12:48, 22 June 2023 (CDT)
